Prometheus.io Process Collector

Hex.pm Hex.pm Build Status

Collector which exports the current state of process metrics including cpu, memory, file descriptor usage and native threads count as well as the process start and up times.

  • FreeBSD;
  • Linux - uses /proc;
  • MacOS X (expiremental).

Installation

Hex package note: Because OTP strictly validates NIF version c_src was compiled with, I removed precompiled binaries from the Hex package. This means that OTP source code is needed to build this library.

Also collector needs to be registered (for example in default registry):

prometheus_registry:register_collector(prometheus_process_collector)
require Prometheus.Registry
Prometheus.Registry.register_collector(:prometheus_process_collector)

Example scrape:

Usage

You can register this collector manually using prometheus_process_collector/0,1 or use default_collectors env entry for prometheus.

With Prometheus Plugs - just add prometheus_process_collector dependency to top-level project (i.e. like here).
